I’ve never heard of it before your post...Just googled it! It looks intriguing and sustainable I might give it a go after a bit of a practice!

Jogging at a slow pace at which you can hold a clear ungasping conversation is the recommended pace for all C25Kers, as laid out in the guide to the plan healthunlocked.com/couchto5... but most choose to ignore this advice and push too hard in the belief that "no pain, no gain" is the only way.

Keep running, keep smiling.

Thanks for joining the dots up and Roset64 for posting this.

It is all continuous learning and understanding and it feeds the only site to be a part of, the C25k programme also.🤔👏👏👍

I tried it and ended up doing my fastest run ever!! Something went wrong there... :) It interests me, particularly as I have a niggly injury at the moment and I also have trouble controlling my pace, I can only do stop and go. But slow is definitely good and it sounds a lot more beneficial to overall health. Give it a whirl!

You should be slow jogging for C25k. We say it every day 😃

I found that really useful when I discovered it (from this forum). I was already going very slowly, but it made me think about my length of stride too. 😄

Not what you're looking for?
